Natalie and I had a good time in Boston. We got there Friday night. Mark met us outside to help us get out things inside and it was really great to see him. I'm so used to seeing him in competition mode and was happy to see him looking so relaxed. I wish I could have said the same for myself. For some reason I was really nervous.

We went on a haunted hayride that some of his friends had organized. I was a nervous wreck. I kept wringing my hands. He noticed and finally grabbed my hands and asked if I was okay. I told him that I was nervous about someone jumping out at me, but I think I was really nervous about being there with him, even though he gave me no reason to be.

After the hayride we had dinner and Natalie really hit it off with one of Mark's roommates. We had a nice time but I was still really nervous.

By Saturday my nerves had calmed. Mark wasn't making any moves on me so maybe that helped. It's weird. I find him incredibly attractive, but I didn't want anything to happen. I guess it's because I know that my heart is still healing and if Mark were to be more than a friend I want my heart to be ready for him.

We spent Saturday morning touring Boston and then we headed to Salem. We had fun but the weather was a drag so we didn't get to stay out as long as we had hoped. Still, I'm glad we got to go. Salem is truly a cool place to be on Halloween.

On Sunday we headed for home. I got a weird voicemail from Lauren. I tried calling her back but didn't hear from her until today. She left me another message a little while ago telling me that she's coming down tonight. I'm not sure what's going on, but I wish she would call me back! All of these dramatic voicemails are getting to me.

Well, that's all for now!
